- Jun Aizaki, a designer with a foundation in architecture, founded the multidisciplinary studio CRÈME in 2004, focusing on hospitality interiors and product design.
- Aizaki's holistic approach ensures elements within a space or object enhance interactions, drawn from inspiration by locales, clientele, and artists.
- He employs both analog and digital methods for idea generation, using traditional paper notebooks along with the Procreate illustration app on his iPad.
- Aizaki's passion for pottery complements his architectural work, appreciating the tactile nature and unpredictability shared by both crafts.
- His interests in mobility, craftsmanship, storytelling, ceramics, and nature influence his personal collections and professional projects.
- Aizaki's Friday Five includes highlights such as his motorcycle symbolizing freedom, a cherished knife for reliability, and admiration for Kurzgesagt's storytelling.
- He values ceramics like the Yunomi as a connection to tradition, and plants in his workspace as reminders of resilience and growth.
- CRÈME's projects like the Brooklyn Townhouse, Gourd Project, Timber Bridge proposal, Sheraton Kagoshima, and RedFarm Austin reflect Aizaki's design ethos.
